Abstract
A method for en bloc staining a biological sample by (a) immersing the sample in a staining solution including an ionically conductive solution and a charged stain molecule or stain precursor that associates with a component of the sample; and (b) applying an electric field across the staining solution, whereby the stain molecule penetrates into the sample. Staining times are reduced.
